Scott is not a futurist. He is a practitioner who has built, failed, and scaled digital businesses across emerging markets, and who speaks about what that experience actually teaches — with uncommon candour and zero slide-deck clichés. He has advised organisations across banking, retail, healthcare, and government, helping leaders move AI strategy from conversation to action.
